Literacy Centers vary from week to week. They include various writing opportunities, listening to books on tape, reading to a tape player to listen back to, computers, reading for pleasure, exploring in science and social studies, and coming with me to read in small groups.

Math Centers allow for reviewing of the concept that is taught the day before. The great thing about centers is that they are hands-on and work with your child's abilities.

Everyday counts Math consists of our bulletin board. We study calendars, patterns, counting, recognizing numbers, months of the year, days of the week, skip counting by 1's 2's 5's and 10's, counting money, place value, telling time. We do this every day in order to help your child practice these important concepts every day of school instead of a short chapter.
